Relonch started as a mobile app (see the original post from a few years ago here). They've pivoted into a "camera as a service" model where you $1 for the photos you keep. It automatically uploads all your photos to the internet and uses AI to select and edit the best ones. It seems they're filling a strange middle section of the market. It's not for super casual users that are satisfied with their iPhone/Android camera and the high-end market wants to use their expensive DSLR to manually capture and massage their photos (I assume). Curious to hear other peoples' thoughts on this approach. (I edited my comment to clarify the business model -- see below)

Would love to see the onboarding, uploading, etc processes for something that has no buttons and is mostly covered up. Could be magic or a dealbreaker.

This is going to the top of my list for 2016. The list is called "Silicon Valley 4EVR."

AI is cool, to *automatically pick the best photos and edit them in sandbox* is for lazy and hurry people, and deep in my heart I see it as a slogan, not an useful feature. The camera is not for experienced ones, nor serious photographing. It's more like a toy, like lomo camera

This is very cool! Would love to test it out

I've been dreaming of a product kinda like this for a long time. I hate managing my photos and want them as pretty as possible. I want someone to manage them, edit them, and make them beautiful, by paying a monthly fee. Really hope this will pivot further so I can use it from my phone, with my phone's camera that is good enough for me.

@yuriymotin Do you guys have any of these in NYC for testing? Would be interested in performing an objective test of difficult situations to see what the camera + backend can produce.

Like this idea! :D

This thing takes the most incredible shots every time.

Pros:

amazing shots with one click.

Cons:

They won't sell me more.
